Two horses begin at rest. After a few seconds, horse A is traveling with a velocity of 10m/s west, while horse B is traveling wi

th a velocity of 13m/s west. Which horse had greater acceleration?
A. Horse A because its change in velocity was greater than Horse B in the same time.
B. Horse B because its change in velocity was greater than Horse A in the same time.
C. Horse B because its change in velocity was the same as Horse A's, but it took less time.
D. Both horses had the same acceleration.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

The correct answer in which peer forces each act in a different body

Explanation:

Newton's law of action and reaction states that the two forces have equal magnitude, but in the opposite direction, each acting on a body. Which creates acceleration in these, if they act in the same body it would be canceled so there would be no movement.

The correct answer in which peer forces each act in a different body

A steel ball with mass m is suspended from the ceiling at the bottom end of a light, 17.0-m-long rope. The ball swings back and
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

1. 18.25 m/s

2. 0 m/s

Explanation:

1.So the centripetal acceleration of the ball at this lowest point must be, taking gravity into account

a_c = \frac{T - mg}{m} = \frac{3mg - mg}{m} = 2g

The speed at this point would then be

v^2 = a_c r = 2gr = 2*9.8*17 = 333.2

v = \sqrt{333.2} = 18.25 m/s

2. Similarly, if T = mg, then the centripetal acceleration must be

a_c = \frac{T - mg}{m} = \frac{mg - mg}{m} = 0

As the ball has no centripetal acceleration, its speed must also be 0 as well.

During an auto accident, the vehicle's air bags deploy and slow down the passengers more gently than if they had hit the windshi
MArishka [77]

Answer:

0.3814128 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 36 ms

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = 60g

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow u=v-at\\\Rightarrow u=0-(-9.81\times 60)\times 36\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow u=21.1896\ m/s

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{0^2-21.1896^2}{2\times -9.81\times 60}\\\Rightarrow s=0.3814128\ m

The distance the person traveled is 0.3814128 m

Two balls of unequal mass are hung from two springs that are not identical. The springs stretch the same distance as the two sys
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

b) Springs oscillate with the same frequency,

Explanation:

expression for frequency of vibration of mass hanging from a spring is given as follows

f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \times \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

k is force constant of spring and m is mass vibrating .

In the present case, if mass stretches the spring by x and remains balanced

mg = k x

\frac{k}{m} =\frac{g}{x}

g and x are same  for both cases

\frac{k}{m} will also be same for both cases .

Hence frequency of vibration will also be same for both the balls .
